Details.
Wiki.
Necronomicon (also called H. P. Lovecraft's Necronomicon, Necronomicon: Book of the Dead or Necronomicon: To Hell and Back) is a 1993 horror anthology film, based on the works of H. P. Lovecraft. The film comprises three segments and a wraparound, directed by Brian Yuzna (who also produced), Christophe Gans and Shusuke Kaneko. It stars an ensemble cast, featuring Bruce Payne, Richard Lynch, Belinda Bauer, Maria Ford, Dennis Christopher, Gary Graham, David Warner, and Jeffrey Combs as Lovecraft.
Of the three segments, "The Drowned" has light similarities to aspects of the short story "The Rats in the Walls", "The Cold" is based on the short story "Cool Air", and "Whispers" is based on the novella The Whisperer in Darkness. The title is a reference to the fictional grimoire that appears in Lovecraft's works.
An American, French and Japanese co-production, the film premiered at the 1993 BFI London Film Festival. It was released to home video in the United States on October 29, 1996. It received mixed reviews from critics, though it has developed a cult following among horror film fans.
